It seems a little strange to Ruth and myself not to be coming out to Caltech this summer, but it was difficult to leave here at this time. I hope we can continue to get away every other summer; the change is certainly a welcome one.

The news at this end of the continent is that Harvey Itano and I are working together on the sickle cell hemoglobin problem again. We found that Hb S undergoes a rapid reversible dissociation into half-molecules in acid solution in exactly the same way that Hb A does, but that when S and A are mixed, taken into acid, and re-neutralized, no recombination of S and A half-molecules can be detected by electrophoresis. The dimerization of the half-molecules is therefore specific, and controlled by the same small difference which is responsible for the difference in sickling behavior of the whole molecules. We will also examine Hb G in similar studies.

I would also like to ask a favor of you. I am writing an article on antibodies for Scientific American, and I would very much like to include a figure which you originally published in your article in Endeavor. This
is figure 2 in the April 1948 issue, volume 7, number 26. Trevor Williams
has already granted permission for the magazine, and I would appreciate your approval as well.

Our fond regards to you and Mrs. Pauling, and greetings to all.

Sincerely,

S. J. Singer

As you know, the N-terminal sequence of the A chains is val-leu. Herb has now been able to identify the N-terminal sequence of the B chains. He has isolated a dipeptide, val-his, and a tripeptide, val-his, leu. Quantitatively, they account for about 1 ½ of the two B chains. The tripeptide may be isolated in about twice the quantity of the dipeptide when a 15-minute hydrolysis in refluxing 6 N HCl is used.

I thought that this information might [sic] of interest to you and might be of use at the Protein Conference in Paris.

Of the checks that have been written, $271.70 were for us, 555.97 was to pay bills, and $98.00 was a loan to Linda, which she ought to repay but probably won't until you tell her to. This leaves a balance of $166.47. There is a $65 bill from Happys, and a $294.00 bill from the Burrows for auto insurance. Of the payment Mrs. Jordan made a month ago, I gave Linda $40 for my contribution to the food fund, Lucy $20 to shop, kept $10, and deposited $30. Of course, the seventy that I kept for our expenses will be added to my expenses for the summer, making $361.70 to date. Linda has been bad with the food fund, making a huge salad for a dinner party that she was going to; then she accuses me of being too stingey [sic] when I tell her I can't afford to feed a lot of people, esp. when we aren't even invited to the party. I had to pay Huntington Hosp. $204 for expenses and haven't received the bill from the obstetrician as yet. It will be $175. I think we ought to break even on money this summer, even with the baby bills, but I'm not sure.

Dick Lippman's brother-in-law is looking after Cheryl, and seems to be a very good man. Cheryl is just a darling, and is as good as can be. Linda complains about everything! The weekend when Lucy and Cheryl came home I asked Linda to keep the visitors to a minimum, and she had a crowd here all weekend. She complains about fixing breakfast for the Mills', apparently forgetting that Mrs. Mills has prepared every dinner for the past five days, and payed [sic] for more than half of them. I tried unsuccessfully to reimburse the Mills' for the food they have bought us.

The Editor

The New York Times

Dear Sir:

In my letters to you of 9 June and 7 July 1957, I pointed out that a false statement about the support of the National Academy of Sciences on the biological effects of atomic radiation had been made in the New York Times of 9 June 1957, and that I was disturbed by what seemed to be a contribution by the Times to an effort to mislead about an important matter.

In your reply of 12 July you mention only the article "Pauling to Press Atom Ban Abroad," which I had already seen before writing my letter of 7 July, and which contains no mention of the false statement.

Am I to conclude that you do not propose, for the benefit of your great body of readers, to correct the untrue statement that you published on 9 June, that was reported by the National Academy of Sciences that "a cumulative 50-roentgen exposure in 30 years is harmless?" If you do not publish a correction I request that you publish my letter of 9 June to you, omitting the last paragraph, which has been taken care of by your publication of the full text of the appeal on 12 June. Sincerely yours, L.P.

Beadle to Dr. Sterling Emerson, Division of Biology & Medicine, US Atomic Energy Commission, cc: LP, RE: Notifies him of the articles on radiation by Miss Elizabeth Coulson, The El Monte Herald.

It was nice to learn from your letter of the 21st that you are continuing to enjoy yourselves. As for being busy, this is probably a normal state with both of you, but I hope you can find a day now and then for yourselves.

Enclosed is the only article I could find in MD with any reference to bomb tests. I am also enclosing the Bengelsdorf reprints which you requested.

Bea sailed on Sunday from San Francisco and dropped a postcard to us before sailing. It seems lonely around here with both of you gone, but we like to think you are having a grand time and that we may hear some of the details of your travels at a later date.

I don't know just how much news has been passed on to you by Bea but little seems to have happened here in the last few days. People are, of course, coming and going. Warren Bush will have his oral tomorrow. Dr. Roberts is in Madison, Wisconsin for two weeks. I am told Dr. Johnston is leaving the area Saturday. Dr. Matsuda has English lessons three times a week from Kay Nakamura and is coming along beautifully now.

Linda looks well, although perhaps a little tired. Now that Barclay is here I am sure life is much more interesting. Crellin seems fascinated by the new arrival and delights in sharing the details of her upbringing.

Alice Home just called in regard to your letters to Drs. DuBridge and Bacher about Francis Perrin. Both are off campus at present and are not expected back until the end of next week. In view of this, she thought you might wish to extend the invitation yourself.

Perhaps more events worth noting will take place in the next few days and I shall pass them on to you then. Meanwhile, our fondest thoughts are with you and Mrs. Pauling, and while we want you to have a truly fine trip, things will seem more "right" around here after your return.

Sincerely,

Lucille Lozoya
